New unique items
Klear:
I think you're overestimating the impact of exploding barrels. Enemies dying in a fire with little ammo investment and no danger to player is worth more than any destroyed items...
Sambojin:
Good point, but there's every other kind of shotgun for that. I thought the Weak-sauce would make for a different style of shotgun but still using the same shotgun rules. It's still powerful to a degree, but because of it's weakness in combat, not it's strength. Just a different take on the "uber-weapon-'o-death" that sometimes gets suggested.
I'd still be inclined to think that I've died a few times due to blowing up medi-packs, health-spheres and super-chargers. Many of which I probably never knew were there. I thought I was doing a good thing by blowing up unseen monsters with unseen barrels, but a bet a hell of a lot of other things got destroyed at the same time. Things I really could have used.
aka_Cthulhu:
I have half on an idea, not even sure if this is even possible.
So I remember the acid spitter, and I thought "well, what about something that uses the dead bodies of your enemies?"
Like, a corpse spitter, perhaps? You can reload the gun/cannon by standing on a corpse. Main mode of firing launches all the ammo, and it'd hit like a rocket with splash damage, as well as covering the floor with blood. Alternate fire would be a weaker shot, hitting a single opponent for a fraction of the ammo cost.
Equality:
my opinion - not new uniques, but delete some of existent. If RNG so favorite and one of uniques spawns, it must be really GOOD thing. Not a junk like Mjolnir, or Flack shotgun. Or rebalance them.
And keep chances equivalent: if exist unique pistols like GCB, Trigun, AFJ - then must exist 3 of unique shotguns (not only Jackhammer) and unique rapid-fire 10mm like minigun.

Counts as double shotgun; opposite direction of improvement: instead of increasing spread cone in length (as in super shotgun), we increase width!

"Hitscan", to say so. IIRC, something less crazy with 45 degree spread was proposed, yet never done. OP since damaging pellets from Doom aren't implemented (yet?), but diferent cones are yet to be played with. For more clarification and less silly name it can be assembly called "sawed-off double shotgun" (like in Fallouts).
